Zentripetal Kraft RechnerFormel

## Centripetal Force

An object in circular motion requires a net inward force directed toward the center of the circle.

### Formula

**F_c = m * v² / r**

This force does not do work since it is always perpendicular to velocity.

Lösungsbeispiel

A 2 kg ball on a 3 m string swings at 5 m/s.

  1. F_c = m * v² / r
  2. F_c = 2 * 25 / 3
  3. F_c = 50 / 3
  4. F_c = 16.667 N
